Copy SQBServerSetup.exe and SQLBackupC.exe to the installation directory. To upgrade the server components run SQBServerSetup.exe. Alternatively you can upgrade each instance from the GUI by selecting the SQL Server instance in the left hand panel, right click and select Install/upgrade server components

MAXTRANSFERSIZE indicates to SQL Server the maximum size of each block of memory that it uses to store backup data, prior to SQL Backup compressing/encrypting the data.

This is particularly useful if you experience an error such as "Failed to close vdi". In this case the VDI.log will show for example
"Error at ServerBufferAreaManager::Allocate: Map buffers Status Code: 8, x8Explanation: Not enough storage is available to process this command."

In this case you can use the MAXTRANSFERSIZE keyword with a lower value than the 1MB default, e.g. MAXTRANSFERSIZE = 524288

We have strict security on our browser on the server where our application is located so I get an error that I can't check for updates with the application (we are not allowed to run javascript on the server). Is there an ftp site to get the latest versions instead or is the only way is to download the latest trial version?
Thanks,
Linda
